Previously premium tanks only boosted your credits for a match (unless you used accelerated crew training). Now they boost your exp received after a battle AND boost the crew exp. Note this is not free exp and if you wanted to use the exp from your premium tanks elsewhere you would still need to convert it normally (and yes accelerate crew training works alongside this change).

The Tier X vehicles, the VK 72.01(K) and M60 do not have increased credit rate.

Yup, very good idea, and an incentive for people to actually buy a premium vehicle Anything which can speed up crew training is welcome. Love your x2 weekends by the way. So if you accelerate crew training, have a x2 weekend, and the x1.5 bonus things should move along properly whilst earning some credits. Thanks WG.

More reasons to play those "worse than elites, better than stocks BUT STILL BETTER THAN MOST TANKS" premium tanks like Type 59, SU-122/44, the future T8 T-54, T-34-3 (yes it's better than both T-44 and T-34-2), T34 (need I say more ???), the future T6 T-34-85 with 150mm EFF frontal armor and it goes on and on.

Oh I can't wait to play my favorite T6-T7 tanks when the premium T-54 hits the fan. OH I CAN'T WAIT !
